Naked Man Moleskin

I would like to read the lyrics to the song Jesus take the wheel by Brett James / Gordon Sampson / Hillary Lindsey

She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati on a snow white Christmas Eve

Going home to see her mama and her daddy with the baby in the backseat

Fifty miles to go, and she was running low on faith and gasoline

It’d been a long hard year

She had a lot on her mind, and she didn’t pay attention

She was going way too fast

Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass

She saw both their lives flash before her eyes

She didn’t even have time to cry

She was so scared

She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus, take the wheel

Take it from my hands

‘Cause I can’t do this on my own

I’m letting go

So give me one more chance

And save me from this road I’m on

Jesus, take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder

And the car came to a stop

She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock

And for the first time in a long time

She bowed her head to pray

She said, “I’m sorry for the way

I’ve been living my life

I know I’ve got to change

So from now on tonight

Jesus, take the wheel

Take it from my hands

‘Cause I can’t do this on my own

I’m letting go

So give me one more chance

And save me from this road I’m on.”

Oh, Jesus, take the wheel

Oh, I’m letting go

So give me one more chance

Save me from this road I’m on

From this road I’m on

Jesus, take the wheel

There are many times in life where I fight the Lord’s plan and white knuckle that steering wheel to pull onto the path I want to go on.  May this year bring you the courage to let Jesus take the wheel and follow His plan.

Peace,

Cousin Eddie
